EXCERPTS FROM REVIEWS OF OTHER WORKS

"The book 'Krishna, the Supreme Personality of Godhead,'
should prove to be an important addition to materials for college
courses in religion. It is one of the best sources in English
for gaining insight into the bhakti [devotional] religious tradition."

" 'Krsna' is an important book both for the new student
of the history of religions and for the professional scholar.
It is a helpful and significant contribution to the growing phenomenon
of interest in the religions of Asia."

--William A. Johnson
Professor of Philosophy
Brandeis University

" 'Teachings of Lord Caitanya' is an authentic and
lucid account, in English, of the life and philosophy of Sri Caitanya
Mahaprabhu. The spiritual movement initiated by 'the Great Master'
five hundred years ago has profoundly influenced millions of men
and women in India ever since, and is presently making its mark
throughout the world.

"Sri A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada. . . has done a
great service to the English-speaking world by making this spiritual
treasure available in English."

" 'The Perfection of Yoga' is most useful for anyone
wishing to understand the meaning of yoga. It also introduces
the student to the study of Bhagavad-gita and shows how direct
and simple yet, in another sense, how profoundly complex is the
path of spiritual growth through yoga practice. It is a scholarly
book, yet has a direct personal meaning for all--a powerful combination."

--Dr. Frank Ledwith
Professor of Psychology
University of St. Andrews
Fife, Scotland

"I think the best feature of the Hare Krishna movement is
that it is providing scholars with excellent translations of the
rarest books on Krishna-bhakti."

--Dr. Larry D. Shinn
Danforth Professor of Religion
Oberlin College

"I have read Sri Bhaktivedanta Swami's books with great care,
attention and profound interest, and have found them to be of
incalculable value to anyone who is curious about India's spiritual
and cultural heritage. The author of these books displays on every
page an astounding scholarship in the subjects treated, and also
an understanding and ease of exposition of abstruse ideas, which
are rarest gifts."

--Dr. H.B. Kulkarni
Professor of English and Philosophy
Utah State University

"The publications of the Bhaktivedanta Book Trust are very
valuable documents and will no doubt become classics for the English
reader of Indian religious literature."
